Hey SAU! Been on here for awhile now. My name is Aubrey and I live in little ol New Zealand always wanted a Skyline,but after my pulsar got stolen and was recovered but it was a write off. Soo needed a car urgently, and my mate was thinking about selling his car, and i knew the previous owner before he owned it so i know its past history and done pretty low kms. only 144kms on the clock/engine. But finally got myself a RB :w00t: Currently Rb20e auto, but will be staying like that for awhile because i'm a poor uni student frown.gif buts mods will start coming soon! Well picture time smile.gif


How I got it, bought it with standard wheels, but my mate didn't have time to take it off, so I took it off later on. It is lowered on JIC s13 coil overs

This is what it looks like at the moment on steelies with hubcaps on because didn't want to make it too cop bait because here in NZ you need a certification for any aftermarket mods you do suck has adjustable suspension engine swap etc. gave it a cut and polish. Looking shiny smile.gif

And the aftermath of the cut and polish working its magic!

The car came with no sounds, so got my sound setup and ready for install


All Installed now ! Looking for a din pocket with cup holders if anybody got them !

Had to make spacers out of MDF to clear the window and for the speakers to sit properly.

Don't worry about the bungee cords. This is just temporary till i find another way how to stop my sub box from moving around.

this is pretty much how it looks like now and where i am at the moment. trying to suss out a deal with a seller for a set if wheels and hopefully get them this weekend. Will keep you guys updated.

Its not everybody's cup of tea, but thought I will try a different approach to the typical Cefiro you see in NZ roads. Now just need to buy some tyres !

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
